Great to see a post from PoorOldPo again - and what a relief to see such a balanced statement about Islam in Europe!

There have been Muslims in Europe for something like one and a half thousand years, so in addition to the complex moral issues and statistics of the situation today, there is a long, long back story too. Being unsure or ambivalent about your position is a very sane response imo, although to judge from the posts here, most people have formed an adamant opinion before joining the thread. Perhaps that's why this "debate" has degenerated into slinging mud and statistics at each other.
